FEATURES

The 2022 Dalla Valle Maya Proprietary Red Wine marks a significant vintage, being the first time since 1989 that Cabernet Franc (54-55%) takes precedence over Cabernet Sauvignon (45-46%) in the blend. This "wow" wine is celebrated for its immediate appeal while possessing a structure that promises rewarding cellaring for 20 to 30 years, with some suggesting it's best enjoyed from 2030. Critics have hailed it as a front-runner and potentially one of the standout wines of the vintage. This red wine displays a deep garnet-purple to dark ruby hue. The nose is an intricate tapestry of fresh boysenberries, wild blueberries, red currants, plum, blackberry, and black cherry, interwoven with subtle hints of cedar, forest floor, earthy spice, pencil shavings, garrigue, licorice, red roses, iron ore, dark chocolate, spearmint, violets, camphor, new leather, and delicate floral notes. On the palate, it is full-bodied and intense, supported by supple yet firm, grainy tannins, a rich mid-palate, bold freshness, and a remarkably long, lingering finish. Flavours echo the aromatics, featuring dark fruit, blackcurrants, blueberries, black cherries, violets, crème de cassis, dark chocolate, liquorice, aniseed, clove spice, and a slate-edged minerality. It's described as intricate, supple, luscious, silky, elegant, and tightly structured. 🍴 Food pairing suggestions include grilled meats, various red meats, and a selection of cheeses and hearty dishes. Specific recommendations range from braised beef, pork roast, and filet mignon to cheese soufflé, veal marsala, pulled pork, baked brie with caramelized onions, New York strip, braised beef brisket, pork chops, burrata, hanger steak, beef vindaloo, herbed roast pork, cheese fondue, beef wellington, beef rendang, and grilled pork chops with garlic lime sauce. 🥂 This Dalla Valle Maya is perfectly suited for special occasions, grand celebrations, or a luxurious dinner. Its exceptional age-worthiness also makes it an ideal candidate for long-term cellaring, promising even greater complexity and enjoyment in the decades to come. 【First vintage since 1989 with Cabernet Franc dominating the blend】
